Studying antique photos is an
 excellent way to learn about 
Victorian and Edwardian  clothing. 
*
Take note of the design of the dresses
 and gowns, the details of their jewelry
 and accessories, the style of their hair
 and sometimes best of all...their
fabulous hats!

On the following pages you will see some of my
 favorite digital photos displaying unusual and exquisite
 authentic Victorian and Edwardian clothing, hats and accessories. 
*
The digital photos that I have chosen for my website
have been cropped from the original photo to better display
 the fashion of the time period and not the
 entire photograph. 


~ An interesting note regarding old photographs~
I was told by a very reliable source that when a
person is photographed with a book in their hand
or on their lap it is meant to indicate literacy.



Choose an era or subject below to view.

Enjoy!



What color were their clothes? 
 
Below is a tin type of an actual fabric swatch board.
Compare how the real color of the swatch appears in the tin type of the fabric board.
